The Metacognition Motitation
Thought Swap
This is one of the Motitations introduced in Testosterone Warrior Mindset.
It’s a mind tool designed to switch you out of zombie-thinking mode into a higher cognitive state.
While the New Thought Motitations contain simple psychological messages, this Motitation contains a 15 minute script (repeated twice) designed to install a metacognitive switch into your thinking.
Policing And Guiding Your Thoughts
The most effective mind tool you can develop to break System 1 behavior is metacognition, a form of self reflection.
Metacognition is a higher cognitive System 2 function.
This Motitation briefly describes the System 1 and 2 Dual Theory of Mind but for more on this see Testosterone Warrior Mindset.
Metacognition simply means thinking about your thinking and is the perquisite for all other mind tools.
Think about that for a moment.
It’s the conscious spotlight that lets you catch System 1 in action, interrupt it, and redirect your thinking toward more thoughtful, rational, intentional choices.
It’s about using your conscious awareness to observe and objectively evaluate your automatic thinking patterns and mental processes.
Automatic programs run our lives and most often we have no idea how they got there.
If you don’t “police” and guide your thinking, these automatic “patterns of your past” will pilot the direction of your life.
This is what I refer to here at AudioTEACH your automatic mind.
Like Carl Yung said,
“Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life and you will call it fate.”
This is exactly what this motitation will help you do.
Remember, just because you think it, doesn’t mean it’s true and the more you start to understand the nature of life the more you will see the fragile nature of our preconceived perception of reality.
We judge, we make decisions and we see life through the lens of old outdated and faulty thinking and beliefs.
We become prone to propaganda, tribalism and rigid thinking.
Through metacognition we look for not only the mechanics of lower brain habits like snap judgments and automatic lazy thoughts but also the content of those thoughts so they can be scrutinized and discarded or “rewritten” if needed.
The Thought Swap is a powerful metacognitive tool for breaking free of homeostatic thinking and priming your mind for higher cognitive function.
The strategy is simple.
Listen to this Motitation repeatedly until the concept is implanted deep into your subconscious mind.
Metacognition is mind magic.
Start using it today and captain your life to new heights.
